Srilanka can take heart from the fact that their defense stood tall right throughout the game, highlighted by the number of super tackles inflicted on India, which will hold the islanders in good stead for the rest of the tournament.
India wins 44 - 28 against Srilanka to register its second win of the 2018 Asian Games!
Yet another great display of top-flight Kabaddi from the Men in Blue to follow up the opening match win against Bangladesh. India did have a slight shift in momentum at the start of the game as Sri Lanka raced away to a lead but the Ajay Thakur-led side clawed their way back to gain the lead and from there, did not look back.
Wow! A timeout called for by Srilanka. Just 20 seconds left on the clock, wonder what the advice is now? Maybe a surrender raid and then a SUPER TACKLE? Well, its a game of strategy after all.
Anyway, back to live action and Rohit Kumar finishes off with an empty raid which is also the buzzer raid.
And again, a SUPER TACKLE! They are relentless when they are only three or less on the mat. Gangadhari Mallesh was the raider on that occasion, brought down on his first raid.
The Srilankan defense has managed to pull off close to five super tackles today. Probably best for them if they play with only three defenders, isn't it?
Poor, poor tackle from the left corner, who runs in towards Rahul Chaudhari as the star raider was looking to go back. Rahul just moved away and went across the mid-line.
